Default The most interesting Raptors team ever!

Our coach seems to be making excuses and he doesn't seem at all positive.
In the post game, he concentrated on downloading shortcomings to the players
and making excuses, instead of focusing on the positives and things the team
will be able to do to improve.
A strange response to the first two pre-season games.

BC seems far more optimistic, hopefull and positive.
Glad he's on our side!

With all due respect, it is the very purpose of a coach to focus on things
that his players do wrong and get 'em fixed. The smoke-up-the-ass praise
is for the GM.

If the coach praises the team at this point, when we clearly played a
pretty bad game, then the players would become complacent and we'd play
like this all year. It's his job to motivate the troops by pointing
out their mistakes. Any good coach knows this.
